    15 Audi S4 keyed

    Car was paid in cash - no lease or finance etc. Also - fast lane is bodywork by Audi lookers - thats who they use. The point is not about have or have not 1500 to chuck at it - is to either go or not go through insurance? If the right thing is to pay 1500 to fix it -then thats fine...

    15 Audi S4 keyed

    Hello all, my relatively new black s4 has been keyed on the passenger side across front door, rear door and rear quite deeply so that at some points metal is showing. finger nail definitely feels it. It was done parked outside a residential road and don't know who did it so no point going...

    Bargain or some ting wrong?

    I'm doing exactly that - running very quickly to the dealer to bite his hand:p. yes - its main approved dealer with many shops around uk - they won't even deliver the car to a closer dealer for me to test - said car is losing them too much money already. can't spend another 500gbp sending it...

    Bargain or some ting wrong?

    Good news is i managed to find a good deal on a 2nd hand audi s4 black model. It was registered in april 2015 so less than 1 years old with 5k miles on the clock and was up for sale at 26k at an approved audi dealer. Deposit paid - picking up car this weekend. However, out of curiosity - i...

    Potential S4 buyer

    ouchy, don't know really...seems that having anything nice is taking a chance someone might take an interest... However, I did go to test ride a 2011 b8 s4 in manual and 2013 b8.5 s4 in dsg. Regarding the 2 cars, the manual was lots of fun but obviously pre-facelift and it had not much...

    Potential S4 buyer

    Seems majority were converted to DSG from manual? thats good to know and might try to get a test drive on the dsg B8.5 that the dealer has on site too to make a direct comparison. As for the theft - yes - it does bother me - because my race bikes and other motorbikes are all in the garage. If...

    Potential S4 buyer

    Hi all, i'm going to test drive an audi s4 in next couple of days and am currently facing a bit of a dilemma. 1 - i like manual cars but these only available up to 2011 models - later 2012 do not have. I prefer the 2012+ shapes slightly but do want manual - anyone who's had both and can...

    Rig possible upgrade

    My PSu is a Corsair TX750. I meant the r390 works, ie boots and all but my windows is outdated and can not install the drivers. My 4870x2 overheated a few times due to the crappy design of the heatsink - would get clogged within a few months. Had to dismantle and clear up a few times until it...

    Rig possible upgrade

    Hello everyone, I'm looking for some advice on the best possible solution. I used to upgrade very frequently, dabbled with phase change for a while and then built my last rig a few years ago. Last few days - my powercolour 4870x2 died(or possibly died). Anyway, went on to overclockers and...

    Advice needed - Neighbor Issue

    Seriously though, not saying I haven't thought about the letterbox or throwing into their garden, but that is not an option so far. Problem is, its all squishy and running due to the rain and i am choking when i went to inspect it yesterday. I think black sacking and giving it to them is...

    Advice needed - Neighbor Issue

    Hi all, i'm having some problems with my neighbors who recently moved back. Our houses are separated by a shared drive leading to the garage where I keep my motorbikes. I generally use them on weekends, but haven't been able to ride them recently due to other commitments. However, about 2...

    How do I get my knee down? (Pics)

    Seriously though. Im at a bit of a loss... a cheap track day can be had for around 90 quid or less. I did even cheaper ones during march on my ducatis. when it was freezing cold. If you crash on the road by trying a knee down, the repair bills will run several track days worth...

    How do I get my knee down? (Pics)

    Probably both. I use my knew to gage how much i'm leaning and whether i can go faster or not. It also acts as a support, taking more weight off the bike. I never try to do a knee down on the road though. one bit of loose gravel and you'll be off.

    How do I get my knee down? (Pics)

    I ride twins too. Ducati's are ok, but the mille is a very top heavy bike so is harder to knee down than most.

    How do I get my knee down? (Pics)

    1st of all, don't worry about it. It took me until my 3rd track day until I got my knee down, even though i was right upt to the limit on the tyres. It will come. 2nd, grab some of the instructors on the track days. They're free. Use them. 3rd. Looking at the pictures, your whole body...
